[Detailed description of the device]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a small fish draining and cooling / drying device which cools and drys shirasu, which is a raw material for delicacies and Tsukudani, and small girls, after being boiled.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, in draining and cooling and drying small fish such as shirasu after boiling, a steam heating device is provided at the bottom as shown in FIGS. A small-sized fish containing a large amount of boiling water that has been boiled by the fluidized-boiler 12 is used. 4 is sent together with hot water from the sending port 14 to the conveyor 1, and then continuously sent to the draining and cooling / drying device constituted by the resin fiber woven mesh conveyor 2 arranged at an inclination.

[0003] Small fish 4 after being boiled are continuously fed to the sloping mesh conveyor 2, and in the process in which the small fish 4 ascend and move, the wind blown by the blower 3 provided on the upper side, By removing the water-containing air by the exhaust fan 5 provided on the lower side, the water is drained, cooled and dried, and then transferred to the next conveyor 7. However, the small fish 4 tended to adhere to the mesh conveyor 2, and the small fish 4 that did not naturally fall onto the conveyor 7 were forcibly scraped off by the peeling tool 8 below the final end of the mesh conveyor 2. The water dropped from the mesh conveyor 2 was collected at the lower part and discharged from the drainage port 6.

[0004]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the conventional drainer and cooling / drying device which directly sends from a fluidized boiling pot to a mesh conveyor, small fish immediately after ripening containing a large amount of hot water are continuously fed, Dispersed on the mesh conveyor, the cooling effect is improved because it is forced air cooling by air blowing, exhaust air, but the water drainage is poor and remains attached to the surface of the mesh conveyor,
There was a drawback that the phenomenon of not falling onto the next conveyor was frequent. For this reason, the peeling tool provided at the final end position forcibly peels the fish, which damages the fish and significantly reduces the quality of the product.

[0005]

In order to solve the conventional problems, a cross-section is formed on the upper surface side of a small fish carrier surface of a mesh conveyor that constitutes a cooling device, which is a drainer in which air is blown from the upper side and exhausted from the lower side. A small fish scattering prevention plate bent in a mountain shape or an arc shape in cross section is provided, and a fumarolic passage composed of pipes and ducts with upward fumaroles is installed on the lower surface side so that small fish being transported can be removed from the fumarolic passage. It blows up and is separated from the mesh conveyor by blast air and drops again on the mesh conveyor to promote cooling and drying, and to assist the flow of water discharged from small fish.

Furthermore, the moving speed and tilting speed of the mesh conveyor can be adjusted according to the size of the small fish body, the water content, etc. to improve draining and cooling / drying.

[0007]

[Function] The small fish after ripening containing a large amount of hot water continuously sent out from the delivery conveyor is blown up from the mesh conveyor surface by the air ejected from the fumarole of the fumarole and separated from the mesh conveyor, Cools and dries efficiently without damaging the fish body and improves the flow of wastewater remaining on the mesh conveyor. The jetted small fish are not dropped by the small fish splashing prevention plate on the upper surface side but dropped again on the mesh conveyor to be transported.

The mesh conveyor is made of a non-water-absorbent resin fiber woven cloth, and the mesh is finely formed to prevent damage to small fish. Therefore, since the water discharged from the small fish adheres to the mesh and is easily stored, if the small fish is on the surface of the mesh conveyor, it is difficult to separate the water from the small fish, and it is necessary to blow air from the upper side. The effect of exhaust air from the lower side is also significantly reduced. Under such a phenomenon, it is extremely effective to separate the small fish by spraying them from the mesh conveyor in order to prevent the small fish from adhering and improve the effects of draining and cooling and drying.

Embodiments Embodiments shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 will be described. 1 is a delivery conveyor that is connected to a small fish simmering device and sends out the boiled small fish 4 containing a large amount of hot water. The delivery conveyor 1 is a resin that conveys the small fish 4 in an upward direction. A fiber woven mesh conveyor 2 is provided in series. The mesh conveyor 2 is installed so as to be tilted so that the moving speed, the tilt angle, and the stop time can be appropriately adjusted according to the fish body of the small fish and the water content state, and is operated continuously or intermittently. Therefore, the small fish 4 fed from the feeding conveyor 1 is dropped to the mesh conveyor 2 when continuously moving, and dropped to the same position during the stop time when moving intermittently. Therefore, it is heaped up intermittently.

On the lower surface side of the small fish transporting surface of the mesh conveyor 2, a fumarole 9 composed of a pipe, a duct and the like connected to a compressor and a blower is installed. This fumarole 9
The mesh conveyor 2 has an upwardly facing fumarole 10 for ejecting and separating the small fish 4 placed on the small fish transporting surface of the mesh conveyor 2 from the lower side, and moves at the position where the fumarine passage 9 is installed.
Squirt up the small fish 4 on the upper surface. In addition, the mesh conveyor 2
The small fish splashing prevention plate 11 formed by hitting the small fish 4 on the upper surface of the small fish transport surface and bending it so as to fall again on the upper surface of the moving mesh conveyor 2 and forming a mountain-shaped or arc-shaped cross section. To install.

A plurality of air blowers 3 for sending air to the moving small fish 4 are installed on the upper side of the mesh conveyor 2, and an exhaust fan 5 for removing the moist air is installed on the lower side of the mesh conveyor 2. do it,
Forced air cooling is performed as in the conventional cooling / drying apparatus, and a drainage port 6 for water discharged from the small fish 4 and dropped is provided at the bottom.

The small fish sent by the mesh conveyor 2 are
Although it is sent to the next conveyor, the small fish 4 are well cooled and dried, and the mesh conveyor that is in contact with it is drained, so that it does not have to be scraped off by the peeling tool at the final end and is transferred onto the conveyor 7. Disperses due to its own weight and spreads out.
Therefore, the small fish 4 is efficiently cooled and dried by air cooling without damaging the fish body.

[0013]

[Effect of the Invention] The present invention eliminates the need for a drying area that requires a large land or a large volume, and drains water and cools and dries efficiently while transporting on a mesh conveyor for a short period of time regardless of seasonal changes and weather conditions. It is possible to mass-produce high-quality products while maintaining the original shape without damaging the fish body.
